Shooting a wire over a grove of tall trees. What works?
 

Bob, ya did good.... You got an interesting new antenna up... You got
your CW dusted off... You had fun I hope in the process...

Don't worry about your CW.. Keep jumping into the weekend contests,
even if only for a half hour... The biggest skill in handling multiple
callers is learning to latch onto a specific sound and mentally
ignoring the other callers... Only practice can teach your brain that
skill... Just keep jumping in... Before you know it you will run a
frequency without giving it a second thought...

I can't stay up all night anymore either... That is where having a
buddy to operate with helps...

Thanks Denny, I just found an intersting program for sending CW calls
signs on a computer for practice. RufzXP is the name. You can get it
free at: http://www.rufzxp.net/ You set at the keyboard and type as
the call signs are played over the PCs sound card. It's actually a lot
of fun and I'm sure it will help get me tune up for the next CW
contest.
